Non-slip sole structure of fishing shoes

ABSTRACT

A non-slip sole structure of fishing shoes contains a sole, a profile of which corresponds to that of a bottom end of a body. The body includes two groups of hooks one piece arranged on a forefoot position thereof and a heel portion of the bottom end thereof, the sole includes a slot defined on a middle section thereof to space apart two group of hooks. Each hook has two extending sections extending outward from a bottom end thereof, and a length of the slot is greater than a size of each hook, such that after the sole is retained and glued with the bottom end of the body, a gap forms between the slot and the two groups of hooks. The sole also includes plural V-shaped cutouts arranged on a forefoot position thereof and a heel portion thereof to correspond to and retain with the two groups of hooks.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to finishing shoes, and more particularlyto a non-slip sole structure for finishing shoes which when a sole isremoved from a body, the body keeps stable in walking and stepping byways of two groups of hooks, thus enhancing grapping friction andanti-slip function.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Conventional finishing shoes are employed to walk in a river to preventslip and contain a sole glued with a non-woven fabric on a bottom end ofa shoe body to achieve friction resistance in stepping and walking.However, the sole removes from the bottom end of the shoe body easily.

To overcome such a problem, an improved non-slip sole structure isdisclosed in US Publication No. 20130036633 and contains a plurality ofregular or irregular protrusions one piece formed on a bottom end of ashoe body and a plurality of cutouts defined on a sole to retain withthe plurality of protrusions, and the shoe body is glued with the soleto avoid a removal of the sole from the bottom end of the shoe body.

Nevertheless, a size of the bottom end of the shoe body is too small tocause sufficient friction resistance, and a size of each protrusion anda number of the plural protrusions are limited, hence when a user walksand steps on slippery surfaces, such as stones or wave dissipatingconcrete blocks, non-slip structure of the finishing shoes cannot causefriction resistance against the slippery surfaces. Furthermore, sincethe sole is glued with the bottom end of the shoe body, the stretchingcapacity of the non-slip sole structure is restricted in walking andcannot change with a curvature of the shoe body.

The present invention has arisen to mitigate and/or obviate theafore-described disadvantages.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The primary object of the present invention is to provide a non-slipsole structure for finishing shoes which when a sole is removed from abody, the body keeps stable in walking and stepping by ways of twogroups of hooks, thus enhancing grapping friction and anti-slipfunction.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a non-slip solestructure for finishing shoes in which a gap forms between a slot andtwo groups of hooks, and the sole also includes plural V-shaped cutoutsarranged on a forefoot position thereof and a heel portion thereof tocorrespond to and retain with the two groups of hooks, hence activitymargin and deformation rate of the sole is increased when a curve of thebody changes in walking or stepping.

To obtain the above objectives, a counterweight structure of a trafficcone provided by the present invention contains:

a sole, a profile of which corresponds to that of a bottom end of abody, the body including two groups of hooks one piece arranged on aforefoot position thereof and a heel portion of the bottom end thereof,the sole including a slot defined on a middle section thereof to spaceapart two group of hooks.

Each hook has two extending sections extending outward from a bottom endthereof, and a length of the slot is greater than a size of each hook,such that after the sole is retained and glued with the bottom end ofthe body, a gap forms between the slot and the two groups of hooks toobtain high flexibility and deformation rate of the sole.

The sole also includes plural V-shaped cutouts arranged on a forefootposition thereof and a heel portion thereof to correspond to and retainwith the two groups of hooks, such that activity margin and deformationrate of the sole is increased when a curve of the body changes inwalking or stepping.

Preferably, the two groups of hooks are arranged in differentdirections.

Preferably, the two groups of hooks are arranged in a direction.

Preferably, the two groups of hooks are arranged regularly on the body.

Preferably, the two groups of hooks are arranged irregularly on thebody.

Preferably, the two groups of hooks are in different sizes.

Preferably, each hook has two extending sections linearly extendingtoward two different directions from a bottom end thereof.

Preferably, each hook has two extending sections arcuately extendingtoward two different directions from a bottom end thereof.

The foregoing, as well as additional objects, features and advantages ofthe invention will be more readily apparent from the following detaileddescription, which proceeds with reference to the accompanying drawings.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

With reference to FIGS. 1 to 5, a non-slip sole structure of fishingshoes according to a preferred embodiment of the present inventioncomprises a sole 20 made of non-woven fabric with a large frictionresistance, and a profile of the sole 20 corresponds to that of a bottomend of a body 10, the body 10 includes two groups of hooks 11 one piecearranged on a forefoot position thereof and a heel portion of the bottomend thereof, wherein the two groups of hooks 11 are arranged indifferent directions or in a direction, the two groups of hooks 11 arearranged regularly or irregularly on the body 10. The two groups ofhooks 11 are in different sizes, and each hook 11 has two extendingsections linearly or arcuately extending toward two different directionsfrom a bottom end thereof, the sole 20 includes a slot 21 defined on amiddle section thereof to space apart two group of hooks 11, and alength of the slot 21 is greater than a size of each hook 11, such thatafter the sole 20 is retained and glued with the bottom end of the body10, a gap forms between the slot 21 and the two groups of hooks 11 toobtain high flexibility and deformation rate of the sole 20. The sole 20also includes plural V-shaped cutouts 22 arranged on a forefoot positionthereof and a heel portion thereof to correspond to and retain with thetwo groups of hooks 11, such that activity margin and deformation rateof the sole 20 is increased when a curve of the body 10 changes inwalking or stepping.

Accordingly, the slot 21 of the sole 20 spaces apart the two groups ofhooks 11 of the body 10, the sole 20 also includes the plural V-shapedcutouts 22 corresponding to and retaining with the two groups of hooks11 of the body 10, thus enhancing connecting capacity of the sole 20 andthe body 10. Preferably, when the sole 20 removes from the body 10, thebody 10 keeps stable in the walking and the stepping by ways of the twogroups of hooks 11, thus enhancing grapping friction and anti-slipfunction. The gap forms between the slot 21 and the two groups of hooks11, and the sole 20 also includes the plural V-shaped cutouts 22arranged on the forefoot position thereof and the heel portion thereofto correspond to and retain with the two groups of hooks 11, hence theactivity margin and the deformation rate of the sole 20 is increasedwhen the curve of the body 10 changes in walking or stepping.

Accordingly, the non-slip sole structure of the fishing shoes comprisesthe two groups of hooks one piece arranged on the forefoot positionthereof and the heel portion of the bottom end thereof, and each hook isformed in the V shape, the length of the slot is greater than the sizeof each hook, such that after the sole is retained and glued with thebottom end of the body, the gap forms between the slot and the twogroups of hooks to obtain high flexibility and deformation of the sole.When the sole is removed from the body, the body keeps stable in thewalking and the stepping by ways of the two groups of hooks, thusenhancing grapping friction and anti-slip function.
